What do you think Obama could have done to prevent this? I keep hearing people say that Obama should have been tougher, but how would this toughness have manifested itself in a way that Putin wouldn't have invaded Ukraine?

He could have ran syria's leader right out of town after he crossed Obama's line! Yoyu people think other leaders dont pay attention. Putin had this after he bitched slap Obama after syria.

Red lines have always worked well in the past.

The perplexing question isn't what should obama do after the fact but rather what should obama have done prior to Russian troops moving into the Ukraine. Showing Putin we have no resolve to honor our commitments to eastern european nations was probably, in hindsight, a mistake.
